cuda - Thrust device_malloc and device_new -


what advantages using thrust device_malloc instead of normal cudamalloc , device_new do?

for device_malloc seems reason use it's bit cleaner.

the device_new documentation says:

"device_new implements placement new operator types resident in device memory. device_new calls t's null constructor on array of objects in device memory. no memory allocated function."

which don't understand...

device_malloc returns proper type of object if plan on using thrust other things. there no reason use cudamalloc if using thrust. encapsulating cuda calls makes easier , cleaner. same thing goes c++ , stl containers versus c-style arrays , malloc.

for device_new, should read following line of documentation:

 template<typename t>  device_ptr<t> thrust::device_new (device_ptr< void > p, const size_t n = 1)

p: device_ptr region of device memory construct 1 or many ts.

basically, function can used if memory has been allocated. default constructor called, , return device_pointer casted t's type.

on other hand, following method allocates memory , returns device_ptr<t>:

template<typename t > device_ptr<t> thrust::device_new (const size_t n = 1)

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers
